Default Looking for Paint Cans and Paper Mache Letters

Does anyone know a site to find these things for a good price?

I don't know about the paper mache letters but I bought my paint cans (quart and gallon size) at my local hardware store (I think Ace?) for $1.10 & $2.50. Sherwin Williams also offers paint cans but they're slightly more. Hope this helps!

Speaking of paint cans...I just saw a cute way to use them for storage. I don't think it's very practical but it was cute.

Screw the bottom of the can to wall and slide your goodies inside.

I might do one for kicks and giggles...lol

I got my quart paint cans at Sherwin Willimas for !.48 each. My Ace Hardware didn't carry them. I think I got quite a deal though!
